veggie scraps


vegetable scraps
will compel folks to visit
or so I am told*

compostable words
dissolving all illusions
return to damp earth

layer with ashes
make an organic parfait
they keep down the stink


(*with thanks to my friend Kathy)

I think we're all constantly recycling everything, Devika! It's that holographic nature of nature :-)

I'm laughing so hard I can barely type! You're going to be off the charts with visitors. Hundreds. Thousands. They'll all come just because you uttered the words vegetable scraps. In Haiku nonetheless!

that is one "extra" ordinary magical incantation. :-D
